My prediction for the weekend:
They will struggle this weekend in both games. I expect a split this weekend. Both games are toss ups. Coach K is the greatest coach in the CCAA but he cant play for the team. The team has to get it together and start playing.
Last comments for 07-08 - Coach K has never had a losing season and I dont plan on this one too be. He has his work cut out for him this year, but the team will definitely get it together by mid season. We have to be patient this year supporters. Its not going to be like seasons in the past. Lets just keep supporting the broncos! Go Broncos!

hall, you really know your roundball. it seems impossible that any of us would be predicting a split in a home series with the two worst teams in the conference. but then this is coach k's poorest start ever, and the studs we thought we had have not jelled as a team.
as stated prior, i am very concerned that we begin league play with only two scrimmages and two games, one with an NAIA also-ran and the other one a good DI mid-major while most other teams like SF and SB have played six and seven games already. our lack of playing time i fear will hurt us, but as we all know nobody wants to play in kellogg gym anymore when most DIII facilities are better--and the university only gives athletics table crumbs and expects coaches to win titles.
one scribe noted last year that coach k. does more with less than anybody in the CCAA, and that's true. but he's not a magician, and unless angelo plays like he should, donelle learns to shoot a free throw like most of us could before we were ten, and we start spelling T-E-A-M this could be a very long and mediocre season.
am off to kellogg gym to cheer for the green and gold--and to watch lakdod boo the president. it's good to see some school spirit about academics here, too.
